@1 A lot of older Jews changed their names because it made it easier for them to land jobs and integrate into a Anglo-Saxon world (my grandfather also changed his name when he became a salesman). It’s just the invisible hand of the free market doing its thing. :)

38,000 years ago, somebody I’m genetically related to painted those bison and horse pictures on the walls of those caves in what is now Southern France. Of course, most of Europe was under about a mile of ice during that time.

when the government of Mexico, and its military and police forces come over our borders on missions of drug running and people smuggling, the balance changes, and if there is a single Mexican soldier stepping over our southern border illegally, then there should be a few American soldiers (or Marines) waiting for him…

20. BiBiGrOPer spews: Hey wait a minute. All those tornados hit the Bible belt today? Doesn’t that mean God hates right wing swill? I hope so. Good riddance asswipes. Hope that part of the country gets wiped off the map.

@15 I share your concern about rising taxes. This wouldn’t be happening if the tax dodgers at the upper end of the income scale were paying their fair share. It’s absurd that poor people pay nearly 6 times as much of their income in state and local taxes than the affluent pay. We need tax reform now!

The fifth thing that Republicans have to do is understand the problem of communicating in a world where much of the television media, particularly, is hostile…If I had to recommend one single thing that the Republicans should be doing to help articulate the message, it is to acquire another television network so that there is not just FOX, but multiple sources of alternative information that will do a much better job than we did in 2008 to keep things honest.

Of course Faux is “fair and balanced” by the GOPP’s definition – they’re saying THEY OWN IT!

@26 My state pension checks have been coming for several years. Just like clockwork. Never missed one. Never got one late. Sure glad I didn’t retire from a corporation. All the corporations are hiring fancy-pants lawyers to help them wriggle out of their contractual pension obligations to their workers. A lot of private sector retirees are getting 40 to 60 cents on the dollar. And can you imagine what would be happening to the old poor folks if the Republicans’ scheme to turn over social security to Wall Street had succeeded?

Dude, I am 52 years old. Ready to meet you anywhere for a beer. Lets see if you allow your mouth to overload your ass in the same way your fingers do. I would like you to use that word to my face. Won’t happen though, no courage to come out from behind your keyboard.

You have no proper upbringing, no education, no honor and no integrity. Your parents must be so proud.

Okay Lee I was thinking of going to one of the Tea-bag things because I am sick and tired of paying taxes to keep U.S. troops in some 130 countries around the world. That probably costs $100 billion annually. I’m sick and tired of paying for corporate welfare that runs another $100 billion annually. I’m sick and tired of paying to arrest people for using what they damn well please to use in their own private life, which cost another $50 billion annually.

myleftfoot i feel the same way. just about had it with…. the media bashing sarah palin and her daughter the whitehouse lying “it wasnt a bow” asking us to pay more taxes and then confirming giethner the tax cheat barney frank flipping out on a college student because he asked him a question (and the meltdown is all barneys fault) robert gibbs lying every night and then bringing up the name of limbaugh or fox news, as if reporting anything is thew issue

@31 by the way myleftfoot, since you are challenging me to a fight, is that the reccomended way to deal with people you disagree with? so when jon stewart ridicules christiasns, should i call him and challenge him to a fight?

Nice to know your guy is busy fiddling with whatever while an American is held hostage. Would it be so awful for Obama to say “We will not tolerate the aggression against an American citizen.”

He didn’t say it. He hasn’t made any comment in that direction.

He is signaling to the world that we are weak. We will talk to whoever threatens to kill our people. We want to find common ground with barbarians who want to kill and rob anyone who crosses their path.

Obama’s actions will lead to a terrorist attack on our soil.

Hope you all chuckle when it happens. I’m sure you will find it amusing.

Do you not understand there is a hostage situation? That the FBI hostage rescue team is trying to secure the captain’s release? Obama is doing the right thing by not shooting his mouth off.

I mean sure the President could be saying we don’t negotiate with terrorists and order the lifeboat sunk. But that would just result in an US Citizen being killed. Better to let the pros do their job and try to get the Captain to safety.

Honestly, hostage negotations are going no-fucking-where. I say create a 1:1 ratio of SEALs to pirates in that liferaft on the next cloudy night, say about 4am local time. Hostage situation over in about 10 seconds.

You then finish the job by moving the international fleet of naval vessels (IIRC, American, British, Russian, Indian and Japanese vessels are currently patrolling the area) to about 3 miles offshore every suspected pirate base (reasonably out of RPG range) and intercept, search, and destory every pirate vessel coming in or out. I figure it’ll take about a month to do the job. Another option is organizing shipping in the area into convoys to be escorted by vessels of said fleet while more subtle methods are used to eliminate the pirate bases.

Dumbass, I was asking you to meet me for a beer. There was no mention of fighting. I just said, and correctly so, that you lacked nerve, honor and the balls to spew your hateful, vitriolic nonsense to my face.

Just wondering what it is you might be afraid of?

For over 5 years I have read this blog and for that same amount of time everyone who has posted similar rhetoric has suffered from the same lack of character as you do.

What qualifies Susan Hutchison to replace Ron Sims as King County Executive? She has zero political experience; she’s never run for public office before, hasn’t even served as president of a homeowners association, and unlike Darcy Burner she doesn’t have a degree in economics from Harvard either. Yet GOP state chairmen Luke Esser absurdly asserts that her blank resume “might actually be a plus with many voters.” (Source: Ron Judd, Seattle Times) Who is he trying to kid?

I fully expect to see the trolls who attacked Burner as “inexperienced” to dismiss Hutchison for the same reason. If they don’t, they’re flaming hypocrites.

@47 This is a tired wingnut meme that’s been parroted by local traitors, e.g., this repulsive comment on a local seditious blog:

“Congratulations Speaker Pelosi, now let the bombs fall where they may. My prediction: terror attack on domestic soil passenger aircraft within the next six months. Casualties in the 2-300 range. And, unfortunately, maybe that’s just what we need. … Posted by FullContactPolitics at November 8, 2006 10:52 AM”

What’s even more disgusting is that “FullContactPolitics” is a Republican candidate!* Yes, it’s true, a phony flag-waver and chest-beater of the Scumbag Party hopes terrorists kill innocent Americans to boost his party’s chances at the polls! No wonder the GOP’s electoral fortunes are in the gutter in our state. With candidates like that, they deserve to be.

* Richard Pope’s forensic work identified FCP as Mark Griswold, who got 15% of the vote against State House Speaker Frank Chopp. Which makes you wonder what the 15% were thinking; or if they’re even capable of thinking. Do dogs vote in that district? He sounds like someone a fucking dog would vote for. All dogs should be rounded up and incarcerated in pounds! Dogs are dirty, disgusting, and useless.

Hey Woman of Lies – but the tornados didn’t hit New York or Hollywood, they hit smack dab in the middle of the right wing-infested Bible belt! Not only did we kick your cowardly asses on Nov 4 and wipe you punks off the political map, it looks like your God is ready to do away with you cum-drunk cowards too LOL!

Hey the chief dicksucker JanetS is back. Hey Janet S – why weren’t you clucking when AWOL Bush allowed hostages to be held in Africa? Could it be you’re a right wing hypocrite?

Hopefully you are right about one thing. Hopefully there will be an attack on America and it’ll be limited to your house and you and your ilk will be wiped off the map so the gene pool won’t be further corrupted – you lying piece of shit.

@36 “Obama’s actions will lead to a terrorist attack on our soil” Wing-nut wetdream. They’re actually hoping that it happens.

Just like the HA weasel faithful who hoped Bush would have an attack before he left office 1-20-2009? Not too many HA weasels would answer the question Steve. Not too many HA weasels would answer the question of they were part of the 10% Bush haters on 9/12/2001 either. Too em-bare-ASSed?

Good of you to admit that you’re hoping for a terrorist attack. What’s a few hundred or thousands of dead Americans as long as you Republicans score a few points, huh? You were probably hoping that the cargo ship captain would be killed, too. Just another casualty in your war on human decency. As far as your “”1-20-2009” remark, looks like you’re making shit up again. Puddy pulls most of his Puddyfactoids from his ass. And 10% Bush haters on 9-12-2001? Just more unsubstantiated rubbish pulled from the Puddy butt, I’m sure.
